For those of us who were around in the early to mid 1990's, we will remember that the i825xx ethernet support was not something that was considered sufficiently vetted for 24/7 use. Folks might be inclined to use *functional* ISA hardware on some near expired P3 ISA machines for dedicated workhorse applications, but the odds of using (and relying on) one of these old/experimental drivers is essentially nil. So lets remove them. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

If you have a network (Ethernet) card belonging to this class, say Y

and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from

Note that the answer to this question does not directly affect the
|
|
kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
|
|
the questions about these devices. If you say Y, you will be asked for
|
|
your specific card in the following questions.

you should say Y to this option if you wish to use it with Linux.

BVME6000 VME boards. Say Y here to include the driver for this chip

If you have an EtherExpress16 network (Ethernet) card, say Y and

read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
|
|
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Note that the Intel
|
|
EtherExpress16 card used to be regarded as a very poor choice
|
|
because the driver was very unreliable. We now have a new driver

that should do better.

that the EtherExpress PRO/100 Ethernet card has its own separate

The Zenith Z-Note notebook computer has a built-in network
